Asked By:ariel12160 in Los Angeles, CA

I had 2 sessions of laser hair removal in cheekbones and I got hypopigmentation and now I have some question about it : 1. It could become more noticeable over time ? 2. I could exposure this area to the sun ? 3. There any treatment to that or just the time ? 4. Could I wax the area with hair or at least pluck for there the hair with tweezer ? 5. If I had those patches before it could lead them to be more noticeable and if yes, it permanent ? 6. Laser could lead to little tiny scars?(like acne)
